How to scp shadow file of b form system a?

Hi all,

What I have already done:
1. Same user created on both system and passwordless ssh form system a to system b through that user

I need to write a small script to copy /etc/shadow file of sytem a to system b,
script needs to be executed on system b.
But as /etc/shadow file is owned by root ,it shows message like permission denied.

inshort i want to execute

Code:

scp 192.168.1.21:/etc/shadow localmachine
